July 5, 2018 at 7:50 am #461015Management responsibility for an audit client is where the auditor also takes part in the management of the client. For example, recruiting staff, advising whether or not to go for an acquisition of another company, designing the internal control system. These activities will compromise the independence of the auditor. For example, if an auditor were to design IC, the auditor would later be reluctant to criticise the system (self review and self interest threats).
The change you refer to is not in the notes or lectures. By definition, these are less comprehensive than a study text and we always say that it is very important to read technical articles and try exams. These resources supplement the dundamental information given in the notes. For,example, to find out more about the change referred to, read the very, very full answer provided by ACCA.
